Google makes almost all its monster money – by collecting all the data you generate by using their products. Including the inconceivable amounts of data generated – by its 91.54% domination of the Web search game.

Because Google is such a monster – it often gets away with…pretty much anything it wants.

“(A) current legal case within the United States related to the nature of computer code and copyright law.

“The dispute centers on the use of parts of the Java programming language’s application programming interfaces (APIs), which are owned by Oracle, within early versions of the Android operating system by Google.

“Google has admitted to using the APIs….”

Long story short:

Google admits stealing the intellectual property in question.

But is fighting Oracle’s request to pay them for it – all the way up to the Supreme Court.
